Nokia 2610 Review
Phone rating: 
Review: Decmeber 2006. Updated March 2007.
The Nokia 2610 is an entry-level phone without a camera. It is intended
for those who want a very easy-to-use phone that has all the basic features
of a phone and no more. It is definitely a very smart-looking phone,
that looks more expensive than it really is. At just 18mm it's nice
and slim, and weighs just 91g. The keypad and 5-way navigation key are
extremely easy to use.
Whilst there are no fun features such as a camera or radio on the 2610,
it has the basics, including an integrated handsfree speaker, a voice
recorder, and supports most types of messaging. However, the big problem
with the 2610 is the poor LCD display. This is very hard to read when
outdoors, even in low to moderate sunlight, making the phone virtually
unusable outside. Nokia seem to have realised this and the 2610 uses
larger than average fonts, but outdoors it just isn't readable. The
Nokia 2310 is a better phone and with the
addition of an FM radio.
Features of the Nokia 2610 include:
- Display: CSTN, 65,536 colours (96 x 68 pixels)
- MP3 ringtones / 24-voice polyphonic ringtones
- Integrated handsfree speaker
- Voice recorder
- Messaging: SMS, MMS, Nokia Xpress audio messaging,
email
- Games: Coin Flipping
- Personal organiser
- Phonebook (300 entries)
- Dual band
- Size: 104 x 43 x 18 mm
- Weight: 91g
- Talktime: 3 hours
- Battery standby: up to 300 hours

In order for a "basic phone" to score more than one star, in my book,
it needs to have "basic features." While I do not have a complete list
of what these features should be, I can list two features that the Nokia
2610 does not have. All phones should have some method of storing a
pause in the dialing sequence. I should be able to store a phone number
in the following way: Number-pause-extension. When I tell my phone to
dial this number, it dials everything up to the pause, and then waits
for me to press a button before it continues. This allows the phone
at the other end to ring, and an automated attendant (AA) to answer
the phone and say "Please dial your party's extension." Then, I press
the button, and the phone continues dialing. I consider this a basic
feature for any phone that stores numbers in a "phonebook." I cannot
find a way to do this with the 2610. There should be a way to get numbers
into the phone other than typing them in. I consider this another basic
feature for any phone with an interanal phonebook. Whether syncing to
a computerized organizer, or transferring the numbers from a previous
phone, there should be a way to "import" numbers to the 2610. I understand
that this is supposed to be an entry-level phone, and that the CA-45
connector is for "authorized maintenence personnel only," or whatever
it says in the manual, but I have another phone that can import/export
its addresses/numbers as text messages. The text message is sent in
VCARD (a cellphone standard) format, so the receiving phone can store
the information in its phone book. Sadly, the 2610 cannot recognize
a VCARD text message, and there is no way to save it as contact information.
If someone from Nokia is reading this, please note that these features
could be added through FIRMWARE changes. It does not take special hardware
to pause in the middle of dialing, or to make your text inbox recognize/store
contact information. Simply reprogram the existing phone hardware, and
it could do these things. It would cost very little to do this. My review
of this phone would gain a few stars with a simple firmware upgrade.

I realise it is a cheap phone and subsequently did not have any expectations
that it would be anything but this, but this phone could of been a little
better in its operating system which is slow to respond. Regardless,
bang for buck, great battery and does the job. I bought this £20 PAYG
for a spare.

I love my phone, it is...... simply the best phone. not a camera, or

then that is going to be a mess!!! so this phone is not a collection
of everything, and that is why it simply remains a phone.

Really good phone for the price. If you want something with lots of
features then don't be so cheap with your budget. If you want a phone
thats a phone and doesn't try to mimic a camera (badly) or an internet
connection (badly) or a dvd player (badly)like other more expensive
phones do then buy this instead of wasting your money. As far as all
the comments on the screen go; if your not intelligent enough to change
the contrast settings in the options maybe you shouldn't be allowed
to use electronics in the first place. zzzzzzzzzz

The first impression is that this is a well made solid Nokia offering.
Unfortunately it has a very poor screen. It is not particularly easy
to set up and has very limited functionality. It is undoubtedly the
worst phone I have ever used in the last 20 years. This was offered
as an upgrade - if you get offered this reject it before you get embroiled
in a battle with your provider. Should be rated NO STARS.

This phone is horrible! I got it for free but had to commit to a two-year
contract with my provider -- what a mistake! 1. I can't see anything
on the screen unless I'm in a dark room. 2. It blacks out (don't know
the correct terminology for this, sorry) after about two seconds (very
annoying!). 3. The audio volume is weak and I can't figure out if it
can be turned up (I can't hear anyone on the other end unless I'm in
a quiet room, and forget hearing anyone outside). 4. The ring volume
is too low -- I have it on maximum and still can't hear it unless it's
right next to me. I'd rather pay money and get something I can actually
use! When my two-year contract is up, I'm changing phones AND providers
for giving me this garbage!

I have to laugh at everyone knocking this phone so low because the screen

before you buy it. Truth is, the phone is customizable for what you
should need and it works as a phone. Isn't that what you buy a phone
for??? The phone works for what you are buying. If you want glamor,
spent a little more than %70.00 RETAIL! Texting is easy, phone can be
customized easily and you can send and receive calls. The reception
is good too. Good phone if you don't need junk on your phone....

I read this review prior to selecting the 2610, thinking "How bad can

impossible to read outdoors, it *is* impossible. Also, it has a stripped-down
Nokia feature set for phone settings. I traded "up" from a Nokia 3120
and am thinking of going back to it, even though it is a three-year-old
phone. Stay far away from this.

I received regular comments from people on this phone. 'Is that a new
phone?' was the most common. Yes, it is a stylish phone and it looks
expensive. The main contributor to this is the fact that the screen
looks to be twice its actual size when it is not lit. This gives it
the appearance of some of the more recent 3G phones. But the 'new phone'
comment was prompted, more likely, by the fact that this phone is much
slower to show wear than others tend to. This is its biggest plus in
my book. Other pro points are awarded for programmable short cuts and
a comfortable-to-hold casing with rubber trim. Gripes include a tendency
for the phone to crash in the middle of a phone call. This happened
to me once or twice a month. The keypad buttons are a little on the
small side for me (I have quite slim fingers for a man) and would better
suit a smaller hand. Nevertheless, mis-pressed keys were still fairly
rare events. In addition to the coin flip mentioned in other feature
lists, I also had an extremely addictive tetris-like game with really
annoying music. It also had a budget planner which would have been much
more useful if the phone had a method of synching with a computer. If
you have noticed me speaking in the past tense, then that is because
I drowned the phone in a swimming pool. I would easily have stuck with
it for another year. That would make a full two years of service. This
is an excellent phone for its category. It has good, if basic, functions
and is packed into quite a durable and very stylish shell.

annoying and its quite hard to see the screen whilst outside but for
a simple and low cost phone, these minor things are acceptable. The
battery lasts ages, even when it is used lots. I love it!

Simple well constructed phone that looks more expensive than the $87
I paid for it. Easy to use, though the menu is less easy to navigate
than my 6310. Don't expect miracles and you won't be disappointed. Please
remember text talk is for phones - not forums!

Was given this phone and am surprised with the long standby time. I
tested it and was able to get around 2 weeks with about 15 mins of calls
per day. My criteria in a phone is long standby time and loud and clear
calls and this phone fits perfectly. If this is available in a clamshell
it would be the perfect phone for me.

i think this phone is a good starter, cuz it dosent have alot of features,
so if you just want a cell to talk to people, this is good.

Its a good starter. It has got a promising battery backup. It has an
OK display for a small mobile. Its additional feature is polyphonic-voice
ring tones. Good phone to start with.
